  1. Colts won that trade!
  2. WHAT? I did not see this coming... I figured nothing would happen with Wilson. Boy the NFC is bereft of top QBs outside 2-3 guys
  3. Since you asked, he reminds me of the song "Spirit in the Sky"
  4. Smartest move for Rodgers by far. If he can ever win some playoff games the Super Bowl berth is there for the taking in the NFC. As far as Jordan Love goes, he's getting paid a decent salary to back up a multiple time MVP. Everyone loves the backup QB. Stand there in your Packers cap cheerleading the team on and "be the future" while taking no hits, enduring no criticism, and learning more and more about the game. He will have earned almost $13 million just for his 4 year rookie deal. IMO he's not very good, so if he plays the gravy train ends.
  5. Hey, Cousins is OK. There's just something missing that you can't quite put your finger on. Somehow he shrinks when the moment gets big. It's hard to really quantify that or say exactly what it is. Some guys can play when it gets ugly and make something happen. With Cousins it feels like once things go off script and he needs to innovate it just doesn't happen. He reminds me of Carson Palmer... just good enough to break your heart
  6. Phillips just isn't worth a big contract IMO. Fine player and great human being (a couple people I know have met him at get togethers and say he is one of the most respectful and nicest people you could meet) but on the football field totally replaceable, as much as I hate to say it because I love the guy as a person. It's probably one of those situations where the Bills would love him back at a certain number but the agent thinks he can get much more on the open market, and hey, it only takes one team.
  7. I would be the worst coach of all time for Davis... 340? What are you sick or something and not eating? Here's a list of the best restaurants in WNY. You put in the work and come to camp ready to be my 1T DT!
  8. This guy sounds like a create a player DT I used to make in Madden! I'd like to see him add 10-20 pounds, but we can take care of that with a few trips to some local Buffalo eateries
  9. For sure! These guys have to make it while they can
  10. Cousins is elite at making money in his career. Guy has banked $161 million already for being totally mediocre. Hey, good for him. It's a business, as we're often told.
  11. Best case scenario, the Browns have the #3 QB in their division, with Burrow and Jackson ahead of him.
  12. Still 2 hours left in this week I less we're going calendar week then we have to tomorrow!
  13. Is this a Zach Ertz thing or is it really going to be announced?
  14. Bruce Arians... LOL That decision will be made way above your head, coach. You have a Super Bowl ring because of Brady. That said, I think Brady really is done with playing. He said something like teammates need him all-in and he can't do that anymore. If Brady isn't 100% locked in, full-on TB12 style with the smoothies, massages, and whatever else then he will fall apart as a 45 year old QB.
  15. I think "we'll see more of this" equates to it happening here and there as opposed to basically never. Plenty of players in Marpet's situation love playing, know they can earn another 50 million or so easily over the next few years, and don't want to stop.
  16. If Brady wants to play somewhere else Tampa Bay will give him the respect of releasing him and not playing games. He won them a Super Bowl. If he wants to walk he walks. Other than playing NE twice a year I don't get why Brady would want to go to the Dolphins.
  17. Hey, good for him! For comparison: the Bills made Jim Kelly the highest paid NFL player in history at one point. Kelly played for 11 years, and made a total of around $28 million in his NFL career. Sidenote: Spotrac is a lot of fun to look at with old contracts. check out some of the star players from back in the day... Keep in mind money started to go up quickly in the later 90's/early 2000's Career earnings/total years/years played Jim Kelly: $28 million (11 years), 1986-1996 Joe Montana $25.5 million (14 years), 1979-1994 Barry Sanders $33.7 million (10 years), 1989-1998 Troy Aikman $55 million (12 years), 1989-2000 Thurman Thomas $23.6 million (13 years), 1988-2000 Bruce Smith $46 million (19 years), 1985-2003 Marpet made over $37 million in 7 seasons as a guard! We're going to see a lot more of this: guys retiring younger because they are set for life and then some early on. I say good for them; we're always told how the NFL is a business and that works both ways.
  18. We can certainly have this discussion about stadium benefits to the community and all that, but let's wait until the new Bills stadium is built and there's a 30 year lease first.
  19. $85 million for 5 years... that might be more than Aikman made in total as a player, and it's just 5 years of broadcasting. You can see the allure for these guys... it's great money for half a year's work a few days a week covering a game you love.
  20. Us in 2030: The Bills can't really get out of Star's contract for another 2 years...
  21. In my best Terrell Owens voice: "That's my DT!"
  22. When I saw Star in person at a local grocery store I was a bit disappointed in his lack of size for a DT. I mean, he's a big guy, and huge for a normal dude, but I want to look at the sheer mass of our 1T DT and say "wow!" in a slightly concerned but still admiring way.
  23. If that's the cleanse I'll still do the yoga and meditation, plus drink lots of water and eat only veggies and citrus fruits for a few days instead. That'll accomplish like 90% of the same thing, right?
  24. He's not going to retire. Didn't he and Woodley break off their engagement because he was too focused on football? I think he will publicly ask for a trade.
  25. They should merge the XFL with USFL and put together a good product, IMO. They need to spend $$ on some names sports fans have heard of before. If there's going to be a pro wrestling match, the Rock vs. Brock Lesnar is going to get a lot more attention than John Smith vs. Tommy White. Find some recently retired NFL QBs or guys who have been on the margins of the league and pay them some serious cash to QB a team. Find either older NFL HC's or up and coming guys and pay them to be the HC. If there are HC/QB combos worth watching people will tune in and the leagues will do well.
